Value Collection 45761 Fully Threaded Stud 5/16-18 2in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 45761 is a fully threaded stud with a 5/16-18 UNC thread form and an overall length of 2 inches. Fully threaded studs have no unthreaded shank — thread runs the entire length, allowing engagement from either end. This stud is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated plain finish, making it suitable for applications that require corrosion resistance and moderate strength. It is a standard fastener used by pipefitters, plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical tradespeople wherever a double-ended threaded fastener is needed in a corrosive or wet environment.

This stud is appropriate for light- to medium-duty fastening tasks in residential and commercial applications. Common uses include equipment mounting, flange connections, and panel assembly where a nut can be driven from both ends. The 5/16-18 thread pitch is a widely specified size across HVAC brackets, electrical enclosures, and plumbing equipment supports. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it a reliable choice in humid, outdoor, or mildly corrosive environments.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fully threaded stud for use with any 5/16-18 UNC threaded nut or tapped hole in equipment mounting, flange, and structural fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Install using a stud driver or two jam nuts locked together on one end. Ensure the receiving tapped hole or coupling is clean and free of debris before threading. Apply anti-seize compound if the stud will be installed in a stainless-to-stainless connection to prevent galling. Follow applicable mechanical or electrical code torque guidance for the joint type and load rating of the assembly.
